The founder Shaun Foggett, Crocodiles of the World in Brize Norton said it could take years to recover from the impact of coronavirus. Due to the pandemic, the Zoo has been forced to close, whilst the majority of staff at the zoo have been furloughed, aside from essential zookeepers. That has led to the zoo starting a Crowdfunder in the hope to raise £35,000 to continue its conservation work.
